Those projector headlights are really nice. Any feedback on quality, reliability and performance; leaks or fogging issues?

I'm really digging the chrome version. It looks like the reflector might have a bulb like the stock headlamp. If these were retrofitted with HID projectors, they might even pass inspection. (Someone stop me.)

I have a different version then these but made from the same company look at my car domain page to see them. I haven't had any problems from them. They don't fog, and seam very well made. then only thing is that the adjusters for them are on the diagonal and not on the vertical and horizontal so it takes longer to adjust the beam, and to get at the adjusters you have to remove the headlight make an adjustment put it back and then look at it again. Just a small inconvenience.

is that large top area for the parking light? I think I see a bulb back there in one pic, but then it isn't lit up in the night shots.

spookz · 11-08-2008, 07:54 PM

I would say it's for the signal light. Parking lights would be the 3 LED ones coming down the side.

Midon · 11-09-2008, 12:01 AM

correct it's a turn signal the led's are the park lights

cali yaris · 11-09-2008, 12:08 AM

I like them -- a lot.

mikenacarato · 11-09-2008, 12:17 AM

cali yaris · 11-09-2008, 05:01 AM

The proper term is "Rice Ring".

Really? I wonder if BMW owners would agree.

I like the halos just not the random ricer led's

mikenacarato · 11-09-2008, 06:34 PM

i think the leds stand out a bit too, if i could swap the bulbs for amber that would be cool.

as far as these halos go, its kind of like altezza tail lights. to me they look stupid unless the car came with them. bmws look good with halos, and the lexus is300/toyota altezza looks good with the altezza lights.

I have them on my car, so I'm permitted to declare them rice if I want. Check the rules page.

i dont like the fact that there are 2 projectors. i rather prefer having ONE. one..big...projector. lol. and yes, the 3 leds just look out of place imo. i like something like this:
